Aug 26, 2018 at 16:30 comment added D.S. Lipham In my previous comment, $C$ was meant to be the component $\{0\}\times [0,1]$.
Aug 25, 2018 at 0:10 comment added D.S. Lipham Your remark about dense subsets is incorrect. Consider the space $X=(\{0\}\times [0,1])\cup \bigcup \{\{1/n\}\times [0,1]:n=1,2,3,...\}$. Let $A=\{\langle 0,0\rangle,\langle 0,1\rangle \} \bigcup \{\{1/n\}\times (\mathbb Q\cap [0,1]):n=1,2,3,...\}$. Define $f:X\to \mathbb R$ by $f(\langle x,y\rangle)=y$. Then $A$ is dense in $X$, $f[A\cap C]\subseteq \{0,1\}$, but $f$ is not constant on $A\cap C$.
